Google's Music Matching Reportedly Replacing Explicit Songs with Clean VersionsSome Google Music users are reporting that the service's new scan-and-match feature has been replacing explicit songs in their collections with clean versions.

Netflix ‘Social Features' Coming In 2013, Once President Signs BillNetflix will be introducing new social features for its US customers next year which will allow them to link their Netflix and Facebook accounts and share their recently watched list with friends. Canadian and Latin American Netflix customers have already had this feature for some time, but the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act prohibited companies from disclosing customers rental histories.
